Problem with TrackIR5 and TGP page flicker in A10

Post by sidneyfr »

Has anyone had a problem with TGP and Maverick page flicker when TrackIR5 is active? (In DCS A10) All other pages are flicker free...I only see it with TrackIR active. It isn't a fatal flaw, but it is irritating!

I've heard of an issue similar to this with ArmA2. The solution was chaning the video driver settings for sync to "Let the application decide". I believe this was discussed in a previous forum post in more detail, here

Thank you Mike for responding so quickly. I tried changing the setting, but no difference. The problem I have is different from the topic you referenced... my flicker is just on 2 pages of the MFCD...the rest of the view is fine. The flicker is only there when TrackIR is active.

Any other thoughts?

Mike, For your information, in case anyone asks about this again, I found a solution to the TGP page flicker by accident.

I had to remove DCS A10 and reinstall it because of some other issue with the game. After the reinstall there is NO flicker. I can only surmise that there was some issue with the trackir software being installed after DCS A10 was already installed. When DCS A10 was installed after Trackir was already installed..no problem.

I don't know if the above was just chance or if there can be an issue with order of installation, but maybe this will help someone if they have the same issue.
